They all had powers that evolved but not as part of a story.. Saturn Girl's original power was "Super thought casting" which evolved into telepathy. Chameleon Boy's original power was "Super disguise" which evolved into shape changing. Sun Boy's original power was "Super Brilliance" which evolved to include his heat powers.
wow, and you complained MY triads were too hard!

Er...I don't know, is that true? It's not what I was thinking of. You're on the right track that it does have to do with roles the actors have played, but it is three different roles.

Again, that might be true, but that's not it.
It has to do with three characters that they have played, rather than three movies they've been in. For at least two of them, I'd say it's the character they are most well known for.

I know that's true about Simon Jones. I don't know that about the other two. It's not what I had in mind.
Hints: • It's nothing to do with the actors personal lives • It's to do with specific characters they've played, but it's a different character for each actor • In the cases of two of the actors, it's about the character most would agree they are best known for. For the third, it'd be arguable who he is best known for. • For Simon Jones, the Triad is about the character that I know was written for him. For the other two, the character was not created for them.

Other names that could fit this Triad: Nigel Bruce, David Burke, Jude Law, Orson Bean.

Given how tough it i to sustain questions/interest on this thread, it may be time to consider revamping the rules. It can be quite frustrating to have some brilliant idea that no one gloms onto.

Dr. Watson is the character I was thinking of for Edward Hardwicke (as well as Bruce, Burke, and Law) but the Triad is not about sidekicks.
I will go ahead and give the name of all three characters. There is something they all have in common: - Dr. Watson (Edward Hardwicke - Sherlock Holmes) - Arthur Dent (Simon Jones - Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy) - Bilbo Baggins (Ian Holm - Lord of the Rings)
